Potatoes/cropping
Driving north past Invergordon the other day I noticed that a potato
field which was in full leaf last week is now devoid of leaf. The
haulms have been cut off just above soil level. This prompts me to ask:
1. Why would this have been done
2. How does this affect the tubers beneath the soil (Does it stop them
developing?)
